Benzoylation of (II) according to Schotten-Baumann yielded a nionobenzoate, m. p. 123-124°. Anal. Caled, for CzsHsaOg: mol. wt., 380. Found: mol. wt., 370. 3-(4-Hydroxyphenyl) -4-(4-hydroxycyclohexyl) -hexane (III).-The benzene filtrate from the preparation of (II)was evaporated to one third of the original volume and cooled to 15°. The solid which crystallized melted at 125-126°, yield 130 mg. Three crystallizations from benzene and petroleum ether (2:1) yielded a product that melted at 132-133°. The melting point could be raised to 144-145°b y further crystallization from aqueous methanol and drying under reduced pressure at 100°.
